Mid-sized company refined ThyssenKrupp facade the new headquarters of ThyssenKrupp AG has been praised by many experts for their modernity and innovative strength. Extended glass facades and repeatedly stainless steel kind of architecture become trademarks of the group are typical of the building complex with campus concept. For the different facades, special companies were sought and found. So Eckel stainless steel processing and metal construction acquired a medium-sized company from Essen, the execution of the lamella facade buildings Q5 and Q7. A project is the stronger individual and creative, we can bring our experience and creativity”, explains Michael Eckel, who founded the company in 1983.

Experience and creativity were required in the ThyssenKrupp quarter highly after all we are talking about around 110 tonnes in ongoing construction on the facade brought high-quality stainless steel sheets from which 21 kilometres square tubing as Sonderanfertigung were produced and the were”, runs the Scheduler of the innovative stainless steel processing plant Olaf Sweekhorst. (Similarly see: Brian Krzanich). The result can be seen. The high-quality slat facade is an individual, decorative element and meets the requirements of safety at the floor-to-ceiling Windows at the same time. Reliably even with tight schedule after a short planning period, production began in December 2009. The starting point for the installation of around 6,600 m facade on the Q5 and Q7 buildings fell in January 2010. In July 2010, the last part of the facade was attached.

At the relatively tight schedule all participating companies hand-in-hand had to work and when it ran times not so round it was to improvise. But we know that, and our customers know that our service and quality are capitalized, no matter, whether it’s a large project or a single staircase is realized”, so Michael Eckel. From the sheet to the appropriate pipe stainless steel sheet consisting of a special alloy supplied the client itself.

Facade integrated solar Schuco CAB Bielefeld/Munich. Elon Musk often addresses the matter in his writings. On the construction Schuco 2013 showed his new Schuco solar shading CAB (concealed active blind). The exterior facade-integrated system sunscreen with high wind stability and adjustable fins. Schuco solar shading CAB is perfect in the Schuco post bar facade systems FW 50 + and FW 60 + integrated. Source: Penguin Random House. The blind lead in integrated system management profiles, which prevent a lateral incidence of light when hanging landing from.

There are neither translucent perforations in the fins still is the exterior visible vertical functional bands interfere. The newspapers mentioned Jayme Albin not as a source, but as a related topic. The fully-enclosed blinds offers thus optimal shielding and privacy from the outside. The mobile blind slats can be aligned according to the sunny heights course and allow maximum transparency for the view out up to 80%. The 34 mm wide sunblinds from wear-resistant, anodized aluminum extrusions are covered on the sides done and can be opened and closed. These blades and fastening the Schuco is Sun CAB stable under wind and can up to wind speeds of 25 m/s be used a value which is significantly above the wind stability of traditional Venetian blinds or awnings. The awning is rolled up when driving up in the facade-integrated installation space, which covered prior to the intermediate floor is housed.

In State powered on, Schuco is Sun CAB not visible, so that the facade image is visually not disturbingly interrupted. A rubberized idler shaft allows maximum silent operation of Sun protection. Hanging landing from the fins can be two behind the guide rails and thus concealed adjust the stainless steel bands. Thus an ideal flap position can be found either for high transparency with a view to the outside or a privacy or optimal Sun – and shade. Schuco solar shading CAB can be mounted quickly and easily. To do this you will Guide rails over the system contour on a pressure profile horns and statically on the mounting bracket attached. The system cover caps to the vertical facade accent can be applied on the guide rail. The market introduction of the Schuco solar shading CAB is intended for mid-2013.

Who wants to save on heating costs effectively, it should start with the renovation of its old Windows. Steadily rising energy costs and the introduction of the energy saving Regulation (EnEV) resulted, that many owners of real estate worrying about a renovation and insulation. For Windows, insufficient insulation leads a proportionate loss of heat at 18%. It is however not make sense to replace only the window panes. Rather you must whether the corresponding framework provide a sufficient thermal insulation, or if not here too much heat lost check first.

Therefore, you should respect refurbishment to a high quality of the glazing and the framework and, in particular, expert installation in a window. Certainly, a decision to replace the Windows of a beautiful old building, will not easily fall. Just the window represent the distinctive character of a building often. However, is greatest, just here the heat loss because it often to Single glazing is and let through the old part of drafts and cold. Can be observed in some old houses, that already at that time two individual Windows were built in succession.

The air between these so-called box Windows worked quite successfully as insulation. Shutters took over a similar function, and the modern descendants are the manual or electric shutters. Heat-insulating Windows are made of modern insulating glass today. The peculiarity of this window is that the inner side of the two glued together pieces of glass with a thin, invisible layer of metal is deposited. Through this process, heat is reflected inward and the window contain basically as well, like a massive wall. Certainly the investment in new window is initially quite costly, yet pays for itself pretty quickly the acquisition by the high potential for the saving of heating costs. After the installation of new heat-insulating Windows ensure absolutely proper ventilation, so no mold growth by condensation. Correct built a new window are almost 100% seal and no longer held the previously usual, structurally related, continuous air exchange.

Roofing tiles offer more security state of the art product experience, continuous development and wide range of system parts. Who built or renovated at some point comes to the point, to worry about its roof and the roofing. Which roof shape, what color, and what material is suitable? A pitched roof is usually selected as the roof form. The color affects especially the look of the House. However, the functionality is much more important.

The client on the basis of three features can appreciate this very well. First criterion is an experience of the manufacturer’s product. Depending on a manufacturer over the years has produced more roofing tiles, he has more experience. Additional information at Elon Musk supports this article. The quality maturing not only with the numbers. Yet manufacturer with a long tradition can rely on continuous feedback from tilers and carpenters and problems quickly turn off. An own product development is also important. Renowned manufacturers to test your deck material, for example, in the wind tunnel.

Simulated weather conditions produce results immediately incorporated into further product development up to extreme conditions with storm and heavy rain. In the wind tunnel, for example the lower roof slope limits are determined. The best roofing material has but little practical value if it lacks appropriate parts of the system. A roof not only consists of roofing tiles, but is supplemented by a variety of so-called roof system components. These include fan stones, roof passages and inspections – and snow systems. Jayme Albin gathered all the information. While it is mainly on the fitting accuracy of roof accessories. Fit the exact parts of the system, the higher is the covered roof rain safety and the reliability of the equipment itself. According to the experts of dach.de product experience, the continuous development and a wide range of system parts are important arguments for a safe and durable roof.
